OK this is for people to help groom the drag track on Thursday and Friday morning before the drags,, there was some talk about this before and quite a few people said they would help out raking.. You will need to bring a ROCK RAKE or LANDSCAPE RAKE With you to trike fest,,May be a few shovels.. this will be a must for our safety,as the drags are gonna have some fast machines running.. If you can help out in anyway feel free to post up..

Some of the people that said they would help were:

Looks great! Should work good...might need a place where we could pile some weight on it though just in case it has a problem cutting up that hard pack.

Bryan Raffa
06-05-2007, 07:52 PM
maybe a box on it we could fill with rocks ...no shortage of them there..LOL

06-05-2007, 09:45 PM
Anyone wanna invite some REAL FAT CHIX? Put a Yamaha Banshee Seat on it so it will be soft on their big ole rump! :w00t: They can take turns riding the CHEESE SLICER!! :D

I do not have a rake or shovel...I have PEOPLE to do that around here. I point, they work! :naughty: :lol:

If I get there in time...I can walk along point at rocks for Raffa to pick up. That will help right?




I'll help with it....You all know the stuff above is just for chuckles!! ;)

Louis Mielke
06-05-2007, 09:51 PM
Oh I am so all over that chit! We need to take a scooter handle and weld to the tung and I'll ride on top of that thing!!!!!

If I'm there in time, I'll lend a hand. Not sure what time you'll be working and what time I'll be showing up (6-7hr ride and I'm leaving here before 10 AM). I might need to borrow some rakes. All I have is a leaf rake.

Hate to see someone get hurt cause there weren't enough people to do whatever they could to make it as safe as possible.

I'll be there Weds. eve with Mapyang(Drew) and have no problem helping. 2 years ago the track was so hard I had to sit on the bars to get my 300r off the line because I couldn't break the tires loose. There will be 2 Big Reds in the goup if we need any more tractors.

The last thing I would do is ride the cheese slicer...with MADMANWITHMOUSE pulling it. I would have scratches up and down my back and my wife would divorce me. :(
